Animal Testing.

Hey guys have not posted in a long time but I must for this.
I am doing a persuasive essay in school for a writing prompt and Im doing "animal testing is immoral"
Animals in the lab are forced to go through countless numbers of pain and surgery just so someone can test their designer make up product. 25-50 BILLION animals a year die from animal testing. Some animal testing is NEEDED in our life like cures for diseases and such that is life or death but even then, is the death of animals worth the price? While anyone who is here should say no!! For example kittens are forced to blindness and rats are FORCED to have seizures OVER AND OVER AND OVER again!! They are infected with diseases, overfed, underfed. Imagine if that was YOUR pet in the lab forced to go through pain and pain for makeup.
So Take Action,
Only buy products of makeup and stuff that say not tested on animals and if you see one, turn your nose up on it and DONT BUY IT (unless you are in a lidgit life or death situation) but If you need new EYELINER find one that is NOT tested on makeup!

Thanks guys!!,

Iams is cruel

I'm Shadowflower, a new author of this blog. This is my first post, on something I feel very strongly against; Animal Testing.

While surfing the web, I came across horrible situation with the Iams Pet Food company:
"For nearly 10 months in 2002 and early 2003, a PETA investigator worked undercover at Sinclair Research Center, a laboratory hired by Iams, and discovered a dark and sordid secret beneath the wholesome image of the dog- and cat-food manufacturer. Dogs had gone crazy because they were confined to barren steel cages and cement cells, dogs were left piled on a filthy paint-chipped floor after chunks of muscle had been hacked from their thighs, dogs were surgically debarked, and horribly sick dogs and cats were neglected and left in cages to suffer without any veterinary care."

So,
"After intense pressure from PETA and its supporters, Iams agreed to make the following significant changes in its testing program:
Iams agreed to begin conducting humane in-home tests for palatability studies.
Iams bowed to pressure and severed its ties with Sinclair Research Center.

Iams is said to have ended all invasive and terminal experiments on dogs and cats."
But Even Now;
"Iams still keeps up to 700 dogs and cats in its Dayton, Ohio, laboratory for non-invasive nutritional studies. They claim that this laboratory provides a decent environment for the animals, but they refuse to allow a PETA representative to see inside. Iams claims that some studies are too complex for in-home programs, but PETA urges Iams to collaborate with veterinary clinics for studies such as these. Veterinary clinics regularly see patients who suffer from ailments that a particular dog or cat food might help alleviate."

What can I do?
1) I suggest, friends, to not buy Iams' food for a start.

2) Join an online boycott, such as,

IamsCruelty.com
(the italicized text belongs to them)

3) DONATE. It's always a good option! Every penny counts.

Wow

Every day, thousands of animals are tested. Drugs, medicine, shampoo and lotions are only some of the products tested on animals. And no, it is not only rats and mice who are tested.

Mice, rabbits, dogs, ferrets, horses, chickens, cows and fish are all tested on. What did the animals do to you? NOTHING! So why should you test on them?

BAN ANIMAL TESTING! SAVE THE ANIMALS!
